Days consisted of meeting with clients interested in renting University facilities, setting up for events, taking equipment down after events, and making sure facility agreements were filed properly. Days also consisted of making sure University facilities were in proper condition for use, making sure that all keys to residence halls worked, checking in and out summer camps, and assisting University staff with general tasks.Learned to complete daily tasks while responding to client questions and concerns.Co-workers were fellow students taking summer classes. We coordinated with each other to cover shifts when someone had class or other obligations.The most difficult part was moving heavy furniture across campus.Everything about this job was very enjoyable.

Very stressful most of the time. Long hours including weekends and some holidays.

Administrative (Former Employee) – Abilene, TX – October 1, 2016

Typically busy day to day. Got along with coworkers and students. Management was difficult to work with due to budget cuts and layoffs. Bacame a click group...either in or out and was never up to you. They decide whose in and who is out for you. Never enough help to meet the high demands.

My typical worked day included supervising and assisting the people lifting in the weight room, supervising intramural sports that we've planned for that day. I've learned more about responsibility not only for myself but for others as well and how to be a leader. My co-worker was my roommate in college and so we planned out everything at home when we didnt have time at school. I had a great manager whom was a great friend before my job. I played in basketball tournaments with him. There wasn't a hard part. The most enjoyable part of the job was supervising my fellow colleagues in the intramural sports we had such as flag football, softball, and volleyball.

Start my morning everyday at 7:00am. I start off by responding back to emails that were left after hours. Making phone calls and visiting with prospective students and families. At times I may be out traveling for my area.

I learned how to build meaningful relationships with students and families. Owning your territory and what it means to recruit.

Co-workers were very easily to get a long with and we worked really well as a team.

The most enjoyable part of my job is building relationship with students and letting them know that they have lots of opportunities out their for them to go to college. Getting to see a student you recruited graduate from college and start down their career path.

Box office, answer calls and reserve tickets.I learned how to paint sets, work with customers.The management was organized and helpful.The hardest part of that job was running the table saw.The most enjoyable part of that job was directing a show.

Greeted with smiles, work at McMurry is definitely a family environment. They trained us to be able to handle all situations and how to interact with alumni of all ages. I would come to work and start calling whichever list of alumni was chosen that day. I would call to update alumni information, inform them of events at the university, and give them the opportunity to financially support the university. Our managers were right there the whole time to support us. Co-workers during break were always laughing, having fun, and enjoying each other's company. We were a diverse group but it worked. The hardest part of the job was dealing with alumni that were displeased with the fact that McMurry changed their mascot from Indians to Warhawks. The most enjoyable part of the job was hearing all the stories and McMurry experiences, especially from alumni who lived during World Wars I and II.

My time at McMurry was an internship while I was going to school. It wasn't great pay, but it was an internship, so pay isn't always to be expected. The experience I gained was wonderful and the professors are so knowledgeable.

On a typical day I would teach two to three classes, see students for advising and help students during office hours. I might attend a committee meeting or sponsor a social club.

I learned allot from my students about what they want as customers and where they want to go in life after graduation. Many of the courses I taught were aimed at employable careers and I think in most cases students found work in those areas after graduating.

The hardest part of my job was trying to maintain a strong program while the school cut budgets and conducted layoffs.

Managing small classes of ten were my favorite types of classes, but I often had classes of up to 35. I really enjoyed working with students individually on their art and design projects to build strong portfolios. This was probably the most enjoyable part of the job. Its a great feeling to see students move from poverty into a middle class job with success. It was great to see them happy with their lives and know that I had a hand in making that happen.
